I am about to "reinstall" my Rovertym sliders (circa 2002) on my truck (new body so the holes aren't drilled yet). What size were the rivnuts used in the original install kit? 3/8"?

I can't speak specifically to Rovertym, but the Safarigard sliders I found from an '02 Kalahari here at a local boneyard in June last year had been mounted with 5/16 bolts, so that's what I used. The outside diameter of the 5/16 rivnuts is 7/16. That meant I had to enlarge (drill out) the 20 holes the plastic sill trim used to install the rivnuts.
